Eiff Update
#52
You know, IMHO, you can't really talk about this whole situation without addressing the elephant in the room. How the hell do you wait 5 months after the initial injury before deciding to have surgery? How did that happen, and whose call was it, or what doctors and advisors were involved in the decision to delay it?

He was injured in January. January 31st to be exact. He had the surgery at the end of May. What gives?

Now, I'm not saying it was the team doctor(s) that made the call. Nor am I saying the decision was more in the hands of the organization. For all I know, it was Tyler's decision and/or he sought advice from people outside the franchise. Maybe a specialist, that he himself hired, was the one to recommend trying to go without going under the knife. But someone, or maybe a collective group of people, decided that he shouldn't have surgery. Either he didn't need it, or that it could wait. I'd like to know what went into that thought process. And I would also like to know what exactly it took 5 months before they could determine that it wasn't working.

And on top of that, the recovery time reported when he had the surgery was 3 months. They initially gave him a projected time-table of 3 months, which put back in pads by August. Obviously that hasn't happened either. And it's looking more and more like September is out of the question to.

It all just seems so strange. Had he had the surgery earlier, even a couple a months after the injury, we wouldn't even be talking about this. Someone dropped the ball here big time. I mean, yeah I know you can't predict how injuries heal, and how players respond, but waiting 5 months just seems beyond ridiculous.

Oh well, I hope he's back soon.
